It seems like there’s always money for Susan Collins and Donald Trump to give huge tax breaks to their rich billionaire friends. I think that’s insane...

I urge you to support Ilhan Omar’s campaign for reelection. If Democrats regain control of the House, they must investigate this flagrant abuse of power against her by Trump, Vance, and the Department of Justice. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-a…

I don’t know much but one thing I do know is that right now some Billionaire is paying some right wing propagandist to lie to prospective voters. Either a paid liar or you will reach that voter. Make sure it is you. Talk to everyone. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

Republicans have done nothing to bring down the cost of fuel, food, or pharmaceuticals. Right now, the only people Republicans seem to be prioritizing are Trump and his cronies. If they were truly working for the American people, they wouldn’t need to buy their loyalty. We deserve better. Period.

Abdul El-Sayed takes issue with Katy Tur wondering why he's keeping Hasan Piker "so close" and "not fully disassociate yourself with him," saying this is "why a lot of people get so frustrated about politics and political media, because it doesn’t actually speak to the challenges they face."

MAKE YOUR PLAN TO VOTE NOW. SCOTUS just allowed the Trump admin to move forward, for now, w/major new restrictions on mail voting ahead of midterms. The order requires states to provide voter lists to the feds & could restrict USPS from delivering mail ballots to voters who aren’t on those lists.
